More About This Book

Overview

Contemporary crafters are thriving on personalizing, modifying, and altering fashion as not only hobbies but as a lifestyle

Why repurpose your sweaters? Because you can't buy sweater fabric by the yard. Sweaters get damaged or go out of style but we still love the prints, colors, and textures. You don't have time to knit it from scratch. It's ecologically correct. And most of all--it's fun!

Sweater Surgery shows you how to upcycle all your slightly worn, slightly damaged, or plain old out-of-style sweaters into fabulous new items for your wardrobe and your home. Readers learn how to choose, cut, restitch, felt, and embellish old sweater fabric, transforming it into beautiful handbags, mittens, scarves, hats, hoodies, skirts, jewelry, soft toys, pillows, and more!

Complete instructions for 27 projects, plus a huge gallery of exciting ideas for further inspiration.

Stefanie Girard (Burbank, CA) has a degree in industrial design from Pratt Institute and worked as a set decorator and prop master for 10 years in the entertainment industry. She has produced, written scripts, and edited Web content for television shows and has been covering these creative topics for HGTV, DIY Network, and Lifetime TV. She is author and host of the Craftside blog (craftside.typepad.com) and hosts her own blog at sweatersurgery.blogspot.com

    Not really good

    I bought this book expecting a fun,crafty book with lots of crafts that turned sweaters into something other than a shirt. I was disapointed.very. Half( actually more,lots more than half )of the book is shrugs and ugly purses. There is maybe 1 or 2 things that I would might make. I don't reccomend it.

    Informative book

    Because I love making flowers I loved the idea of felting old sweaters and cutting out beautiful flowers. There are so many projects in this book that I want to try and I know I will. The instructions and illustrations are excellent.

    Great Book

    This is a great book if you're into this type of thing. Good explanations, good directions, good pictures etc. Not only does it give you good examples it gets your mind going to think of variation on their themes. Great craft book!
